Objectives of the programme

The global computing infrastructure of the future will be founded on a complex and extensively distributed network of heterogeneous subsystems of varying degrees of autonomy. The emergence of this structure will lead to fundamentally new practices in how computing systems and services are designed, developed, implemented, and applied.

Students in the FAdCo Master's Programme will receive a solid and versatile education preparing them for a career in exploiting and advancing these exciting new computing technologies. The programme provides the students with fundamental conceptual tools for the modelling, design and analysis of advanced computing systems, with further specialisation in one of its four focus areas: computational logic, computational complexity, cryptology, and distributed computation. The programme also provides the students a possibility to complement their degree by studies abroad.
